"This is confident genre playwriting [...] Mr. Payne, whose day job is in social work, captures with clinical precision the defenses and despair of the chronically under-nurtured."
The New York Times
"Jonathan Payne's The Revolving Cycles Truly and Steadily Roll'd doesn't break the fourth wall so much as completely dismantle it."
Time Out New York
"[Jonathan Payne's] sharpest when he takes aim at the cuynicism of those who would seek to use the misery of urban poverty as a way to push the story of their own righteousness."
